I'm wondering..which other speaker would equal the ThorsThat's a bit subjective and the Thos is a very nice design (so you CAN pat yrself on the back, so to speak:)); speaking of diy designs, however, I'd mention the Ariel, the Acapella or J Kerkovski's NaO(both open baffle), the Baszilla... many others.
I think yr fine with the Thor. Cheers
